Mrs. Abrams, 40, wife of George Carter Abrams, was born in New berry County. She was the daugh ter of Perry F. and Hattie Sease Halfacre. In 1934 she was gradu ated from Newberry College and for eleven years taught school in Newberry County. By her conscientious and faith ful service she kept alive the truth that man’s greatest need is to learn and that “true progress throughout the ages and in all civi lization has depended more upon teachers than any other group.” Her influence lives on and her deeds are held in loving re- memberance. Mrs. Abram’s work will live as a memorial to one wrtio was de voted to the teaching profession. Our love and deepest sympathy go out to her husband, parents, and loved ones. f We request that a copy of this tribute be sent to her family, a copy to each of the county papers, and that a page in our minutes be dedicated to her memory.
